to be more precise...the different between low-end PS3 and high-end PS3 is HDMI, WIFI and SD/Memory Stick..so basically ppl will buy PS3 (low-end) due to its only USD100 different and plus its have Blu-ray but 360 dont have HD-DVD (have to add-on in the future) kena sumbat another USD50 i think..and have to remember that add-on HD-DVD 360 currently is only for movies... notworthy.gif

and becoz of that..i think micro$oft will or have to cut down their price..especially in japan their sale kinda slow..

Thing is...this christmas xb360 get lots of hit title while ps3 launch...no FF, no mgs etc.
This christmas, xb360 get Gears of war, Forza 2, viva pinnata & alot more. (blue dragon in Japan if i am not wrong)

Why drop the price? Consumer will not necessary pay 100usd more to purchase a 'machine' that has HDMI, WIF & SD/Memory stick when most of them don't need it or don't even know what it does.

Besides..there is this Wii60 thingie...2 machine instead of one, better than HDMI or wifi... laugh.gif

Oh...is my statement above consider a buyer's guide or..erm, persuasion? tongue.gif

Why is Xbox 360 hddvd add on a must? If there is a hdd on it, then its a must for me la... tongue.gif 20gb hdd is not enough~!

There is a microsoft staff blog talking about future xb360 with built-in HDMI port. (xbox-scene has a blur pic of xb360 board with HDMI port)
Whether it's happening or not...we will have to wait & see.

Anyhow...all 3 console will cater to different group one lar. Nothing to worry about, let microsoft worry about the price. It's all about the content.

If you guys wana talk about JackSparrow360 for 'educational purpose'...i guess it's alright, my plasma shield still strong enough to protect me from the pressure of area51....

...but then, if i hear any JackSparrow360 user come in here complaining how medicore or whining about xb360 games = so so only, nothing special....that's when things will get personal, i gona whoop your ass!!!

Wana comment? ok, connect to Live first and everything. That's the ultimate 360 experience! (no, it's not about multiplayer only!)

well if msoft dont enforce the banning then what about the interest of game developers? maybe msoft just wanna collect their profit from gold live and marketplace and let modders away but if that happens then game developers will be running away too. well my 2cents only lah...

Haha...true true. What i believe is microsoft are taking the hit and focus on showing the number to developer. You see, modded consoles connect to live are still..part of the 5million xbox live user. tongue.gif

My prediction is 1 year from now then they will start banning.

QUOTE(acougan @ Jan 19 2007, 02:18 PM)
is there anything new to discuss? summore bring this to the FAQ pinned thread?

at the end of the day, dont care what e66 bricking or live banning;

if Mr A is dead set on enjoying his pirated goods, surely playing "cat & mouse" with all those banning/bricking/countermeasures is not a problem

if Mr B has decided to support ori games, he will buy/trade/swap/rent to the best of his ability

at the end of the day, most ppl are old enough to be responsible for themselves and their actions. no need lame excuses or justifications. no need to wait until this subforum is overrun by majority pirated gamers tongue.gif tongue.gif go enjoy ur games.

Quite true to that, i am not planning to take things out of context by not banning any post or thread so far but just that i am giving quite a freedom for people under xbox forum to look at modded & non-modded xb360 from different perspective. (fine, you can say i am lazy for not moderating too tongue.gif )

Back in the 'ol days...xbox subforum is as dead as Genghis Khan. The only active thread that revolve around game is Halo 2 + Xbox Live. 80% of other post is about...
-how do i mod my console
-how do i fix this problem
-how do i change modchip

Me as a moderator, from what i am doing so far is i want people here to be talking about games. The core thing should be game. I want the xbox subforum to beat other subforum like Dota, WOW, Battlefield....where it's all about, GAme. nod.gif
How to do that? Unmod way lor...the community seems to be more, gaming friendly when majority are ori supporter biggrin.gif

Now i am thinking how do i solve the overwhelming technical threads...hmm.

No ahem discussion. You can't talk about it openly in LYN.

Also, i don't think you need extra cooling for xb360. If its gona die, it's gona die no matter how well you take care of it. It's the hardware quality itself...

Cheers.

i only have money to buy one game, but omg... all of them sounds so goooood....  drool.gif

assassin's creed review is kinda all over the place lah... ign gave it 7-point-something, 1up gave it 7, and gamespot gave it 9.5, dunno which one to believe. damn, i still can't decide!

but i just negotiated with my friend, he's gonna buy bioshock so then we can trade, awesome. and i've changed my mind on halo 3. to play 4 player kena beli 3 extra controllers, plus, my tv is so damn crappy and small. AND i get the feeling the single player won't last me long. so now it comes down to orange box or oblivion..  hmm.gif

Try Pasar Malam thread for 2nd hand games or you can trade with the local gamers. Good that you can exchange gamertag etc etc. It's actually part of the 'fun' in owning original...the waiting & anxiety.

It's PAL region and you don't need stepdown because it's using the same voltage as Malaysia.
